Yesterday I did a 220-mile round-trip on the Daytona.
In a nutshell, I went to Wales to stand on top of a very drafty mountain, to film two scenes that totalled four minutes.
But I had the helmetcam running all the time I was on the bike.
And I filmed the scariest drop off a mountain I know.
Most mountain roads snake left and right and wind the traveller up (or down) the mountain by a slightly indirect route.
This road (Blaenavon to Llanover via Capel Newydd) drops straight down off the top of the mountain.
And the road surface is pitted, broken and has a smattering of loose gravel all over it.
It’s not a sensible road to ride a motorbike down.
Ahem.
Rather you than me: that really isn’t a good biking road!
Unlike the lovely sweeping bends I encountered around Eaton Bray on Sunday.
*googles*
Oh, straight down the A5 for me then. Which is ironic because on Sunday I was down the A5, sitting outside the Super Sausage having, erm, a super sausage.
But you should have a look at the way up video I’ve just published
